Thanks a lot for this great plugin!!!
I want to use the RPi/Arduinos/Pimatic for a new open source energy managment system, which should act as the following:
RPi2 with pimatic <-> LAN <-> Wiznet5100 <-> Mega2560 with Firmata <-> IO-extension.

Sorry it’s German, but there are less alternatives for EMS.
So the normal connection by serial/USB should be replaced with LAN. It’s caused by longer distance between RPi2 and the Mega2560 (~10m). I know, that some FHEM-freaks use the configurable Firmata with Perl on serverside. It would be a keyfeature doing this with the nice Pimatic-soft.
I’m more the hardware freak so I ask for help for the Software-part. How can I help to speed up the “LAN-Johnny-Five-plugin”?
